Wound the thing up wrong on the ground. Took two hours to wiggle it back thru the rail on the coach. I just cant see taking it back off. But, the GMC aint moving now, for sure. Just one of those days. My helpers gave out on me, or I gave out on them. Rolling Eyes
Anyway, it is a sad sight to see. No pictures.
I never thought it would be so hard for 3 men to understand the thing but it has us whipped, for now, and it is super hot in my driveway.

Forgot to say, the new awning material looks nice hanging on the side of our coach. Got the checkered flag and its a good match.

It is done. Never under estimate your spouse. Teri and I did in 10 minutes what 3 of us guys could not get done. New awning is nice.
